According to officials, the two women used a chainsaw to dismember their own family's matriarch - the “grandmother.”
But why on earth would anybody do something like this, especially a family member? Well, we’re hearing that the motive behind this gruesome act appears to be a dispute over a credit card.
But it gets worse, folks….
In an effort to conceal their crime, the two women resorted to grilling the dismembered body parts.
Lord have mercy…
From The New York Post:
Margaret Craig, 71, had been dead for more than a week when police made the grisly discovery Friday at the kin’s Hill Road home in Landover during a welfare check.
“When the officers entered the basement, they immediately smelled the odor of decomposition,” the Prince George’s County Police Department said in a statement.
A preliminary investigation conducted by homicide detectives has determined that Margaret’s daughter, 44-year-old Candace Craig, allegedly killed her mother on May 23.
The following day, her 19-year-old daughter, Salia Hardy, allegedly helped Craig dispose of her grandmother’s body.
In the basement, they “observed blood and tissue on the floor near three white plastic trash bags,” according to charging documents obtained by the news outlet WJLA.
The two women then built a bonfire and placed a grill over it and grilled the grandmother’s body parts.The cops said they also found “what appeared to be brain matter” inside one of the bags and noticed a knife on the floor, which later vanished.
Additional cutting instruments, the cover of a chainsaw, cleaning materials and blood spatter were observed throughout the cellar reeking of putrefaction.
When interviewed by detectives, Hardy allegedly told them that her grandmother had accused her mother of credit card fraud and threatened to turn her in to the police, reported the news channel WTOP.
The two women began arguing, with the dispute escalating to a physical attack that resulted in Margaret’s death, according to the records, which do not indicate how the woman was killed.
This is just such a macabre story. Those two women need to spend the rest of their lives rotting in prison for this.
